Ya, i agree with Rage. Some bits, apart from the intro, are a bit off... Good tab though, well done!! =]

This is pretty good. The Intro is exact, but there are some minor mistakes here.

Exactly it's close but I have the sheet music. You've got the chords close but like in the outro you say all 8 but it's 8 on 5th and 6th strings and 10 on 4th string and 3rd string. All the chords in the outro are like that. 10 and 12, etc. And there is one string being played at a time during the verses.
